I say either a jap (thrashking or such), or a russian or a chinese. Or maybe, the mexican guy stockpiling again
it was a fishy auction, the seller relisted and sold it for 500 $
EXODUS - A LESSON IN VIOLENCE
Still 6x over priced.

Do you have a copy for ~ 80 USD ?

You are right, that was an overestimation.

The CD should actually be worth $5.00 as seen by the massive ugly punch hole through the booklet. Yes, I am aware that apparently all copies of this CD that "got out" are like this but it's still dollar bin territory for me.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the original go for less than the bootleg

Well duh ... maybe

but, you know, a photo of the engraved letters on the transparent inner ring could be killer

When I'm back home I will do it ^^ unless I trade that before

people are too busy to check the item description. bad condition, bootleg or whatever, they will bid on it. i am sure they will bid even if seller write "you are idiot if you bid on this" in the item description.

"Accuser's strongest album and a master work of thrash metal!" this guy is a nut - the only decent Accuser is the Experimental Errors EP. Everything else is average at best.

This guys auctions turned up big money this time around. That wasn't the story in the past when I had won some of his stuff. He does over-grade his items a bit so anyone interested be a little wary.

Also his Vendetta- go and live stay and die bootleg sold for $74 because he lied and said it was the original in the description. Still, he put the matrix number there.

If the Matrix is there then I would say that's half the bidders fault for not doing some research before bidding.

What bullshit. Just because you guys do nothing all day but research and discuss matrix codes means that everybody should?

Humus is right... when I was back at the end of 2009 I knew nothing about matrix codes too... without reading Corroseum I wouldn't know now either

But if seller has specified "ORIGINAL !" in description then he's clearly in bad faith. Could have wrote at least "not first press" or "later press" or "greek reissue"
